No. Even without merc you strafe fast enough with WF. And act1 merc can actually dodge monsters and run away from them when they get hit unlike act2 one. It also won't die to IM which is great when running in CS.


we're talking multishots here dude... strafe will almost only be used in the thight halls going to the center of chaos.

can this be used in places like pits and worldstone 2/3/throne/baal ? i got a bunch of sorcs already and i cant afford to gear a godly hammerdin so i made a zon to do pit runs, (Currently 68 with no stats or skills used) so wondering if this would be a good route

edit: i want a walking char to have fun with. think i'd probably find alot more than tele straight to boss

There are tight packs elsewhere too, but multi is used alot also. Anyways, I guess it's personal preferance.

@lemonfish

"yes u do get max ias with the gear i said.

ues wf+faith is fine, but u depend on ur merc."

sorry, my fault, i forgot you use strafe.
cause with multi you dont reach the max ias (7 frames), only 8. you'd need +10ias

sorry dude, but in my opnion WF is better than Brand GMB in chaosrun using ONLY Multishot, i didnt skill strafe.
dont know if theres any difference in killingspeed using WF strafe and Brand strafe, but in multishot WF clearly dominates Brand. If i run chaos alone, WF is a bit better. In an 8 player run Brand just sucks.
As i said, I only use multishot. cant say anything to strafe.
So: using multi: WF > Brand Gmb
only advantage: killing diablo is much faster with Brand, but thats all.

Cs bowazon by lemonfish


Introduction: Hi I�m Lemonfish and I�ve seen a few asking about a Bowazon for Cs, so here it is, i�ve tested it and it�s working like a charm imo. With this gear u can easily clear out Chaos in 8 player games.


Equipment:


Weap:
Faith gmb13+ because of dmg and ias from fana.

Armor:
fortitude because of ed, make it in mp for the cool look .

Gloves:
Laying of hands for the ed against demons and ias

Boots:
Wartravelers because of the dmg and stats

Belt:
Nosferatus for the ias and lifeleech

Rings:
Raven 20/Leech-res ring for dex, cbf(indispensable) and leech.

Amulet:
Cat�s for the ias and mods, there�s nothing not good for a bowazon on it.

Helm:
120/45 or Mavinas diadem with 15 ias-jwl(Cheap) for the ed and ias

On swith:
Harmony bow for vigor or CTA+lidless for crap bo, i prefer harmony, because u don't need bo.

Charms:
Torch, passive sk�s, anni and perhaps max/ar/life charms.

With this gear u get 95 ias which is enough for best frame with a 13+ fana.


Skill-distribution:

bowskills:

Multishot:
max lvl 23 with items � your main attack in chaos

Guided arrow:
lvl 1 � for Diablo and single targets

Strafe:
minimum 6 points with items. � For enemies standing in tight areas and diablo if u have something to tank dia, so u won't get hit by his red lightning.

Pre reqs: 2

Passive and magic skills:

Critical strike:
lvl 16 with items � Double dmg, no explanation necessary

pierce:
max it � U want to kill as many as possible as fast as u can right?

valk:
lvl 17 with items � meatshield

Pre req: 7

Rest in: critical strike, strafe, ga or freezing and cold arrow for physical imus


Stats:

Strenght: enough for gear

Dex: rest

Vita: base

Energy: base


Merc: act 2 nm offensive (might)

Wep:
Pride � conc aura for dmg

Armor:
Shaftstop � for 30 dr

Helm:
Gaze 8 ll and 20 dr � for lifeleech and dr

Thx for reading.
